The link shows them for me, maybe victoria only?
OK, must be that, because the only Caffe Aurora shown on the Woollies site for me are the capsules. That's a shame, because that's a great price.
And I'm an idiot. When I actually logged onto the Woollies website, magically it appeared. Thanks OP!
I'm in Victoria, it does not show for me in your link and if I search aurora, I get ground coffee and the capsules, no beans
Hmmm not sure then! Both beans and ground both show $8.99 for me. Maybe a mod can sort out my link if I have done something wrong?
I think you have to actually log into the their website before you even see this coffee. At least, that was my experience. I'm in Queensland.
@Gofast: just opened in IE and it was there. Nothing in chrome. Ground coffee is also on special. Thanks OP.
How are these compared to Vittoria Coffee beans?
Pretty sure anything tastes better than burnt dirt.
Saying that these are produced by Vittoria anyway.
These are the worst beans, perhaps only slightly better than the Coles brand - but pretty bad. Really nasty after-taste
You are saying these are worst or vittoria? When I use the aurora beans on a well setup commercial coffee machine and good grinder the result is very good for a supermarket bean.
Can't speak for Vittoria much but no I was talking about Aurora.
I agree. If these are made by Vittoria then both are extremely bitter and leave a bad aftertaste in your mouth for hours. Harris all the way for me when it comes to supermarket bought coffee beans.
sorry, I dont like these beans, and I can drink nearly anything. but they are cheap.
these are only $19 for a KG and are pretty good https://www.woolworths.com.au/Shop/Browse/confectionery-snac…
Also, Lavazza gold is currently $20 for a kg of beans at Coles.
yep, they're good too.
So many factors. Personal preference, milk or not, machine setup, and so on.
thats right, personal taste. these and Harris I just dont like for some reason. (only drink flat whites, maybe these beans arent good for that)
They have a more bitter flavor, if you have some still they make great coffee for mudcake.
I don't mind these beans, took a while to find the right grind setting when I first started using them. I didnt find any harsh or burnt taste and have consumed many bags of these, i typically have a double short black, with the mrs having a latte..
Nice find op!
Cheers
So weird that people buy their beans from Woolies/Coles. Please, no matter what your setup, find a local roaster, ask for their cheapest beans, and support a local business, and get some yummy fresh beans! There is a huge huge huge difference. I pay $15kg from a local roaster. And will never ever buy supermarket beans again.
The ones I have seen have been a ridiculous rip off.
My guess is they think they can charge more because to them only elitist inner city snobs drink home ground coffee.Yes, you do have to shop around, but I am not talking about buying from a coffee shop that sells fancy beans on the side for $56 a kilo or something. Search for a roaster that does nothing but roasts on the premises. You won't regret it. The ones I buy have no labels, no nothing, just great fresh beans.
Been using the Woolworths Select brand for over 2 years - very nice and the cheapest
Used Aurora before…..bad mistake! Burnt taste.Yeh don't mind the woolies ones! Shame the Coles ones are so bad though, since they're Fair Trade
Am I blind?
Or like the Southern Aurora, they've disappeared?
